You can get really big maps by increasing the max systems setting in Settings.txt in the Data folder. You can increase it up to 255 systems. That is definitely bigger than "extra large."

Thanks for that - id still like to see say 0-25 systems for small, 26-50 for medium, 51-100 for large, 100-150 for extra large, 151-200 for huge and then for massive 201-255 systems as default options to be automatic within the game - like to see many expansions within the v 1.85 patch.

Well the v1.85 patch was already finalized and sent to beta testers a while ago. The final public patch in this sequence will be 1.94 or something like that.

But anyways... Make sure to email suggestions to se4 at malfador dot com. Otherwise, they will probably not see them.

Yeah, I think I'll have to do this. The only heartburn I had with that is the backstory for the game results in the "no ancient race" characteristic. But, I can rewrite it to allow a single one...

thanks all for the suggestion!
